The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A low-stakes, unhurried tower defense where you manage resources and build defenses at your own pace.

What players say

Players say the game is much harder than its cozy label suggests, often losing in the first few rounds. They praise the strategic depth, careful tower placement, and cozy art and music, but split on whether the difficulty is fun or frustrating. After about four hours, most have finished the available levels and ask for more.
